Disney on Ice

Beej & Chris

Okay so I had never been to Disney on Ice and never really though about going. But I heard on the radio that they were giving away free tickets so I called BJ and asked him if he wanted to go check it out. He spun the wheel and didn't win the 4 free tickets but they gave him 2 free tickets for coming down. And since the only day available for the free tickets was in the late afternoon while BJ was at work. We took Connor to his friend Takota's house while Kaylee and I went to the show.

Getting all ready to go. Kaylee didn't have any dress ups to wear so we just got in our prettiest dress and sparkly shoes.

Kaylee was sooo excited. She kept asking all day "We go to Disney on Ice yet?"

We got all dressed up, make up and all (or as Kaylee calls chapstick "lips"...I want some "lips" mom) and we were ready to go.

Right after we parked- SOO excited!

Kaylee was pulling my arm so we could get there fast. She then started to skip down the sidewalk smiling ear to ear.

We walked in and Kaylee said, "MOM its so pretty. Look its blue!" (talking about the ice rink)

Mickey, Minnie, and Goofy

Finding Nemo

Beauty and the Beast

All the princesses

Belle, Snow White, Cinderella, Pocahontas, Jasmine, Mulan.

Toy Story

It's a Small World like at Disney Land

Yummy slushy in a cup that lights up (Since we got the tickets for free I figured we would splurge and get one thing)

Yummy....until she dropped the whole thing on the floor and tried to use her spoon to eat it anyway. lol

Pinocchio

Mulan

Incredibles

Lion King

Everyone...

We LOVED it! Definitely better than the circus and I love the circus. ha ha. Since the show was 2 hours long I knew Connor wouldn't make it (especially since it landed during his naptime) even though during the first half of the show I was wishing he was there seeing it...we left him to go play with Takota and Miranda Nelson- Next year for sure buddy!

First Snow Fall

Beej & Chris

Since last year we didn't get a chance to play in the snow much since we didn't really get much snow- we decided to jump on the opportunity this year as soon as we had the chance.

Connor was so tired and after we got him all dressed up and ready to go out and he had a meltdown we decided to put him down for a nap in hopes we could take him out another time soon.

While Connor was asleep I took Kaylee out to play and just kept coming in to check on him.

Kaylee was obsessed with eating the snow and still to this day will eat whatever snow she finds.

Due to the big snowfall our big tree in the front cracked and made quite the mess

I called BJ and let him know and he organized a group of men to come help get it cleaned up before we got even more snow that night. BUT while we were waiting and Connor was asleep- Kaylee and I went sledding at the park across the street.

Love little moments like this...

So that night the boys came over and helped trim the tree down and luckily were able to save the tree. I was overwhelmed by all the help we got from family and friends at such a short notice.

The next day we got even more snow so I was so grateful we got the tree taken care of early so we didn't have anymore problems. This time daddy and Connor were able to join us.
